Do you want to keep the Beyonce vibes going after her concert? The Morgan Bar are throwing an after-party in her honour on Saturday. DJ Al Gibbs & Steve O will be pumpin’ out some Beyonce tunes from new album Lemonade and some older tunes from back in the day.

MUTEFISH + Callous Crows

I absolutely love this band! I heard them playing one of their songs, which is still my favourite, and could not help but buy their album straight away. Mutefish is formed by musicians from Ireland, Poland, Lithuania, Portugal and Ukraine. This mix of the musical sounds and cultures of Eastern Europe with traditional Irish influences results in a unique type of music that is just engaging and full of quality. They will be playing an intimate and fun gig in Sin É (Irish for That’s It), on Friday night. The venue will be receiving Callous Crows on the same night, a two piece rock band that plays alternative hard rock and grunge.
